Metropolitan Sawa, (sometimes Sabbas, secular birth name Michał Hrycuniak; born 14 April 1938 in Śniatycze) has been the Archbishop of Warsaw and Metropolitan of All Poland, and hence the Primate of the Polish Orthodox Church since 1998, the second largest organized religion in Poland.

[1][2] Previously, he was the bishop of Białystok and Gdańsk (1981–1998) and Łódź and Poznań (1979–1981).

Based on documents, Sawa was accused by some Polish historians of being a longtime associate of the communist Służba Bezpieczeństwa as early as mid 1960s in connection with operation "Byzantium" (Bizancjum), actively working under name of TW Jurek, during which he cooperated with communist authorities, leading a coordinated campaign against individual church members and the Orthodox church itself.

He supported and worked with communist government for the purpose of advancing his career within the Church.
